Bump again. New screenshot added. Please take note that the bars for HP, MP, and EXP are placeholders. [](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#814ea2e27873c596fffbf54c9c9fc11d.png) The Options menu can be closed by clicking the button again, and you can also toggle the chatbox on and off :D

I'm not sure if I'm remembering correctly, but I think that BltPlayer isn't the only place where animation is handled. EDIT: Take a look at ProcessMovement. The code there refers to the "Step" variable that sets animations in BltPlayer, unless I'm horribly wrong.

Hello, I recently added Captain Wabbit's Text Drawn to Screen tutorial along with RyokuHasu's Text Wrapping tutorial to my project. However, I've been puzzling over how to make it so that the text wraps by line, not by message. Here is the DrawChat sub I'm using. ``` 'Evilbunnie's DrawnChat system 'Evilbunnie's DrawnChat system, Word wrapping by RyokuPublic , fixed by Rob Janes Sub DrawChat() Dim i As Integer Dim j As Integer Dim x As Integer Dim y As Integer Dim wrap As Integer Dim text As String Dim SubString As String Dim ChatArray() As String x = 0 For i = 1 To 6 text = Chat(i).text y = 1 ChatArray = Split(text, " ") Do While Len(text) > 60 If y = 1 Then wrap = Len(text) Mod 60 Else wrap = 60 End If 'Our Array has more than 1 Word! If UBound(ChatArray) > 0 Then Do Until Asc(Mid$(text, Len(text) - wrap, 1)) = 32 'break line on spaces only. wrap = wrap + 1 Loop 'Our Array only has 1 Word! ElseIf UBound(ChatArray)

For the chatbox, either don't use shading or make it a smooth gradient, not an abrupt transition between two shades. I also strongly dislike the bar at the top with your game's name, unless that's not part of the GUI itself :p The buttons could be shifted down a bit so there's even space between the Ping bar and the Inventory window. Overall, though, for your first GUI, that's actually pretty decent :)

I feel quite stupid now. XD Thanks!

Hello, I've made a lot of major GUI source edits to my game recently, and now, because I'm OCD like that, I'd like the game to show up in the exact center of my computer screen when it's loaded (like the login screen does). After the edits were made, the game window always appears in the top left hand corner, and I'd really like it to appear dead center. Thanks!

Figured it out, just converted all the image buttons to picture boxes. xD

I also tried that. I'll try again, but the first time I tried, when I ran the game, the buttons were still invisible.

Tried that. Doesn't work.

Does anyone know how to make the buttons (inventory, trade, etc.) as well as the health bars appear above picScreen? I'm attempting to redesign my GUI, and it's becoming a major problem.

Bump, cause I'd really like to make a decent amount of progress during my holiday break :)

[](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#19f10192fd43d0cbc0a6458dc9e47a6e.png) Hello, I am as of now working with some friends on a 2D ORPG called Clockwork. It is set in a post-apocalyptic steampunk world. Players start out in the town of Clockwork, where they can form parties, buy weapons, and accept quests. They can then use warps in certain parts of the town to teleport to different dungeons. Features of Clockwork at the moment include… Projectiles (Captain Wabbit) Strafing Self-paperdolling weapons Quests (Alatar) Crafting (DJMaxus) And other stuff I can't think of off the top of my head :P Here is a screenshot. [](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#24222d22d5fa1047a714d2df02cbfdcf.PNG) And [](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#814ea2e27873c596fffbf54c9c9fc11d.png) As you can see, Clockwork is in desperate need of a mapper. The mapper must be easily adaptable and have a fair amount of spare time, as well as being easy to contact. The mapper should preferably also be good with RM2K/RM2K3 tilesets, or at least have previous experience. An additional requirement is that applicants must also have decent English or try their best to speak professionally. I do not appreciate working with people who make no attempt at all to speak fluently with proper grammar, as it usually is a reflection of their work standards. It would also be cool if you are a fan of steampunk, but this isn't a requirement :P So, application forms. Name: Preferred Contact Method: Time Zone: Examples of Mapping: Previous Games Worked On: Other Information: To apply, just post here or float a PM my way. :)

I think so; the instances of disconnection only occur when my character deals damage to many enemies in a short period of time (ex. I attack up, down, left, right and damage an enemy in each direction, then my client disconnects.)

Removed the 3D effect. [](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#89b867a20a9f8d68cba364054192f55c.png)

[](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#b1caa091c8b97203aad2c436c776490e.png) Better?

Attempt 1: [](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#4d580a540db5007f5065ad23c232f15b.png) Attempt 2: [](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#b1caa091c8b97203aad2c436c776490e.png) Attempt 3: [](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/#89b867a20a9f8d68cba364054192f55c.png) This here is the logo for the tentatively-named Back in Time Productions. Critique is welcome; I personally think that the text is too hard to read.

Here's a tutorial for implementing one :) http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,70502.0.html

@ZoSo: > Top Eclipse games on the front page (top up on the forum)? > > Free advertising for top eclipse games.. people need to compete. I think you need to blow eclipse games in people's faces on this page. This. Competition would likely increase the community's output of better-quality games, as well as encourage people to make more games in hopes of getting public recognition.

This is the code that enables strafing. ``` 'If Player(MyIndex).Moving = 0 Then If ADown Then If GetPlayerDir(MyIndex) DIR_LEFT Then Call SetPlayerDir(MyIndex, DIR_LEFT) Call SendPlayerDir End If ElseIf WDown Then If GetPlayerDir(MyIndex) DIR_UP Then Call SetPlayerDir(MyIndex, DIR_UP) Call SendPlayerDir End If ElseIf DDown Then If GetPlayerDir(MyIndex) DIR_RIGHT Then Call SetPlayerDir(MyIndex, DIR_RIGHT) Call SendPlayerDir End If ElseIf SDown Then If GetPlayerDir(MyIndex) DIR_DOWN Then Call SetPlayerDir(MyIndex, DIR_DOWN) Call SendPlayerDir End If End If 'End If If Options.QuickFire = 1 Then If WDown Or ADown Or SDown Or DDown Or SpaceDown Then Call CheckAttack ' Check to see if player is trying to attack End If Else If SpaceDown Then Call CheckAttack End If End If ```

Problem solved by reverting to backup.

I'm running VB6 Enterprise, with the service pack installed. I just restarted my computer, to no avail. Should I scrap this and revert to a backup?
